Me when I contact IT and tell them yes I restarted and followed any instructions I could but computer still angry and IT says they are escalating this because it is an actual issue: I am getting a good grade in service desk ticket. Something that is both normal to want and possible to achieve.

get in loser we’re gonna try again despite it all
are you “adaptable” or are you just willing to subject yourself to existing in low key background-level ambient misery
these are different things btw. actual adaptability means not dealing with being miserable long term. and being constantly mildly annoyed/frustrated with a situation but being “able to deal with it” counts as ambient misery. btw.
let this be your sign to make your life just a little more livable. get a dollar store trash can for your bedside so Cup City’s invasion plans fall through. block a tag or post that makes you grind your teeth every time you see it. get some grip pads so your bed stops sliding across the hardwood a little bit every time you get in it. tell that person you need a little more support. if you get annoyed at a situation more than a couple times, change it. don’t be content with being miserable.
and the more that you start doing this, the better you will get at detecting your own feelings and advocating for yourself! This is an important start to being more of a person in the world if you struggle with that
a roasted brussel sprout can change your life if you let it. open your heart. take my hand. its good, try it. i love a brusseled sprout I love you
diet culture people make me feel like i’m going crazy. you want me to take an experimental pill that destroys my appetite?? you want me to remove part of my stomach??? you want me to stop eating bread and rice, two of the staple foods most inherent to humanity????? why exactly? because my stomach is big? because you don’t like the way i look, and you think it’s reasonable to tell me to carve pieces off of myself and try random drugs and ruin my own life so i can look more visually pleasing to you? and you somehow don’t see how absurdly cruel and selfish that is to ask of somebody???? while pretending you care about their HEALTH????????????????? FUCK YOU!!!!
i’m doing really well for someone who goes through the five stages of grief every day
i highly recommend developing an intense interest in some natural phenomenon or creature such as bugs or stars or mushrooms. you will be delighted every time you go outside
goodbye $200 helloooo 3 groceries
harassment of black cosplayers has always been bad, literally every black cosplayer has received a racist comment or two online and irl but how is it getting fucking worse. Racists need to be curbstomped
And i dont just mean the white ones
When we as Black people discuss fandom racism it's not "fandom drama" because this shit is fucking serious.
Black people are constantly being bullied and harassed out of hobbies and social spaces for no reason other than being black and it's so frequently dismissed because people don't take racism seriously for some reason. I guess it's just expected for black people to be treated like bottom of the barrel subhuman scum
Christians love doing stuff like this and making such a person the face of their religion then turn around and get mad when they're (correctly) seen as insufferable.
Some of the same people upset a Muslim man is poised to be the mayor of New York. But sure, they give AF about supposed "religious discrimination".
Let my Black behind have thrown a fit like this and I'm sure the same crowd supporting this girl would be telling me to sit my DEI ass down.
hey so i read part of the student's essay and i want to add a few things:
it was a 0 out of 25 points. that's not even a huge deal.
she only wrote 650 words.
the girl didn't do the actual assignment; she just wrote what she felt like and submitted it.
the class was a PSYCHOLOGY course yet her essay was about her religious beliefs and provided no citations or psychological basis. she simply insisted her argument was true because the bible supposedly says so.
her entire essay is a mindless rant about how strict gender roles must be upheld and trans people are "demonic"
her writing—and i cannot stress this enough—is on par with that of a child who doesn't want to do an assignment. it's so bad i genuinely thought i was reading a satire article.
the student is a fucking college JUNIOR writing like a 10-year-old. she is also a psychology MAJOR who thinks everything in the bible is literal and that her religion is the only source anyone needs. this is someone who intends to go into mental health care. she is dangerously bigoted and ignorant, and her professor saw this and was punished for grading accordingly.
here's a line from her essay:
"Women naturally want to do womanly things because God created us with those womanly desires in our hearts. The same goes for men. God created men in the image of His courage and strength, and He created women in the image of His beauty."
here's her teacher's reasoning for the grade:
“[I am] not deducting points because you have certain beliefs" but rather because the paper "does not answer the questions for this assignment, contradicts itself, heavily uses personal ideology over empirical evidence in a scientific class and is at times offensive."
the girl is a hate-filled bigot. she is a white christian girl who is now being championed by fox news and turning point usa while her professor sits on fucking forced leave. this is disgusting.
important edit: i have just learned the professor is trans. this hateful brat is actively trying to destroy a trans person's life.
Reading the feedback of the teacher as well as the co-teacher, they calmly explained their reasoning for the 0 grade in a way that repeatedly said this girl was allowed to think what she believed, but that this paper simply could not be considered a completion of the assignment.
The fact that this teacher was put on suspension for failing a student who did not even meet the assignment and went out of her way to say the girl was allowed to believe what she believed is absolutely galling. This is an educational institution, and the fact that they are even considering disciplinary action against this teacher for attempting to teach?? Appalling. Absolutely beyond parody that this is where we are in this country.
I feel the need to point out the following:
1. The teacher who has been suspended is transgender.
2. Multiple teachers in the faculty room marked the paper. Only the transgender teacher has been suspended.
3. The student in question broke this story through the incredibly transphobic organisation Turning Point USA.
4. The student's mother has been posting hideously transphobic things on right-wing social media.
This isn't just conservative anti-intellectualism. This is weaponised, targeted transphobia.
Nothing has ever reminded me that my teenage experience was not universal quite like my close friend telling me shes never heard of the song how far we've come by matchbox 20
Which thing do you MOST associate the song "How far we've come" to?
Supernatural
Percy Jackson
Homestuck
Hermitcraft
Gravity falls
other thing
Ive never heard this song before/bald/nothing
The song for reference:
As a caregiver, I'm tired of people asking,"Do you wipe ass for a living?"
This isn't inherently because it's disrespectul to my job, though it is and us caregivers do SO much more than that; we're taking care of people. That's 10% or less of the job.
It's the genuine DISRESPECT of my clients that bother me.
Do NOT speak about my client like they're a dog. "Do you wipe ass for a living?" You could not have phrased that in a more insensitive, ableist, and dehumanizing way.
Incontenience care is NORMAL.
It is NOT gross, weird, immature, or anything else besides normal.
My clients have felt ashamed for normal things like needing their briefs changed or having to do toiletry and everytime I reassure them they're completely fine and not doing anything wrong. It breaks my heart to see them so embarassed over a normal bodily function, esepcially when they still feel so even though I signed up to do this.
Maybe the elderly or disabled wouldn't be so ashamed of basic things that ARE normal if people didn't make it sound like it was the most absurd, repulsive, and gross thing ever.
Please be mature. If you are an adult and cannot comprehend someone needing toilet assistance without making it weird or sound gross, then you really really need to grow up.
I don't really like making aggressive sounding posts or scolding posts, because every single person is learning and we all make mistakes, but gosh guys, this really bothers me.
Stop making people feel bad and THINK about what you're saying when refering to another human being before you say it. I will NEVER tolerate this disrespect for these people I'm taking care of who trust me.
It really helps to not be picky about what art you engage with actually. Gotta mix up your diet a bit from time to time
If you find you're bored of the folk punk you always listen to, try out a rap album. If you only ever watch classic cinema or more grounded art films, check out a fast and furious movie or something. Or try reading a book if you only ever consume film or tv. Or comics. Or go to an art museum. You may not like whatever it is you try out, and I promise you don't have to like it, but I can guarantee that you can't subsist on a monoculture. Be open to experiencing new art. Even if it's bad. Especially if it's bad, actually.
"What if your mom aborted you?" idk what if my parents never met. what if my grandparents never met. what if my older sister was such a nightmare child that my parents decided one is enough. what if the world was made of pudding
what if my mom didn't abort the ectopic pregnancy she had before me and didn't survive to get pregnant with me in the first place
